The
Spanish and Mexican period of California’s history
has been viewed through different lenses during different
eras. Since the Gold Rush, American settlers have viewed
the previous colonists as alternately primitive and
romantic, cruel and saintly. These varying viewpoints
have created challenges for teachers striving to provide
a balanced picture of the past. In this workshop we
will move beyond the many myths surrounding California’s
history and examine the Spanish and Mexican era in
all its complexity.
